Teddi Mellencamp<\/strong><\/a> has a promising update regarding her health.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust to give a little life update to you guys, I had my immunotherapy yesterday and they did my scans,\u201d Mellencamp, 44, said during the Friday, October 3, episode of her \u201cTwo Ts in a Pod\u201d podcast<\/a>. \u201cAnd at this point, there is no detectable cancer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mellencamp further explained that she still has to \u201cstay on immunotherapy for another year\u201d despite the good news.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not considered in remission or anything like that,\u201d she added. \u201cWhen they told me, I was in such shock. I was, like, numb.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans of the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills<\/em><\/a> star have been keeping up with her cancer journey since October 2022, when she revealed her stage II melanoma diagnosis. This past February, Mellencamp revealed that the illness progressed to stage IV melanoma and metastasized to her lungs and brain.<\/p>\n

Mellencamp underwent brain surgery that month to remove multiple brain tumors. Doctors found more tumors in March<\/a> and Mellencamp was told that she had a 50\/50 chance of survival<\/a> on immunotherapy treatments.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd [the doctor\u2019s] like, \u2018No it\u2019s only because that\u2019s how long immunotherapy has been around so that\u2019s how long the study has worked,\u2019\u201d Mellencamp said during an April interview on Nightline<\/em>. \u201cSo that\u2019s when I then try to find the positive.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tTeddi Mellencamp is celebrating \u201cexciting news\u201d amid her battle with cancer. \u201cHonestly, the crying is already done, but I just finished with all of my scans and my tumors have significantly shrunk, which doctors believe means that this all will work and that I will be back to myself and feeling good,\u201d Mellencamp, 43, said [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Although Mellencamp said her health update was \u201chuge news\u201d during Friday\u2019s podcast episode, the former Bravo star made it clear that she still has miles to go.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m still going to be having days where I\u2019m feeling sick and stuff because I still am in immunotherapy<\/a>. So, I\u2019m still fighting,\u201d she explained. \u201cThe way they said it works, it\u2019s like a year, then two years, then at three years, you\u2019re allowed to be considered in remission.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mellencamp explained that doctors told her \u201call the tumors continued to shrink,\u201d which is \u201cgood\u201d news.<\/p>\n

Mellencamp\u2019s estranged husband, Edwin Arroyave<\/strong>, has been by her side throughout her health journey, despite their split.<\/p>\n

The former couple \u2014 who shares son Cruz, 10, along with daughters Slate, 12, and Dove, 5 \u2014 separated in October 2024 with Mellencamp filing for divorce<\/a> the following month. She cited \u201cirreconcilable differences\u201d as the reason for their split.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter a great deal of care and consideration, I have made the difficult decision to file for divorce,\u201d Mellencamp announced via Instagram in November 2024. \u201cMy priority is my children and ensuring that every care is taken with their privacy and wellbeing throughout this new chapter.\u201d<\/p>\n
